LDG Z-11ProII | Putting Non Resonant Antennas To The Test!

People have always said good things about LDG but I’ve never really used one so I couldn’t confidently recommend them to people. In this video I took 4 non resonant antennas out to the park to see what this portable tuner could do and I was not disappointed. Admittedly there was some user error on my part getting things to tune, but once we got past the "me" obstacle, this tuner performed great.

Antenna Modeling for Beginners – Horizontal Delta Loop (Part 5)

Post author By admin
Post date March 15, 2026

Antenna Modeling for Beginners - Horizontal Delta Loop (Part 5)

In this episode we move away from verticals and start modelling loop antennas.

Using MMANA-GAL, we draw a horizontal delta loop and explore how it behaves compared to a vertical antenna.

Along the way we also look at how ground conditions affect antenna performance, and why antennas near salt water can perform dramatically better.

In this video we:

• Benchmark a vertical antenna at low take-off angles
• See how changing ground conductivity affects performance
• Draw a horizontal delta loop using the wire editor
• Place the feedpoint and model a 4:1 balun
• Use wire scaling to tune the antenna to the correct frequency
• Compare the far-field plots of a loop and a vertical

You’ll also see how loop antennas behave on multiple harmonics, making them useful multiband antennas.

In the next episode we’ll convert this into a vertically polarised delta loop and compare the radiation patterns again.

Software used

MMANA-GAL (Basic version)

Amateur Radio DIY: Dan AI6XG’s Homebrew Projects

In this video, Dan Koellen (AI6XG) shares the stories behind some of his most creative homebrew radio and electronics projects.

Dan has spent years building, modifying, and perfecting gear for ham radio, portable operations like SOTA (Summits On The Air), and experimental electronics. From modified QRP rigs and custom vacuum-tube transmitters to clever antenna transformers and portable stations, this is a look at some of his work.

Learn more about Dan’s projects on his website: https://www.ai6xg.com/
